A soundtrack to a film no one has ever heard of. No one!

A soundtrack filled with tracks that nobody really needs.

Well, with the exception of Double's Captain of course.

BUT OH - what's that well hidden last track there?

I actually only took that record home with me for the title of that said track. Standard Butterbrot Instrumental. And when i finally heard it there were goosebumps all over the place.

Year: 1983

Condition: NM/VG+

Swedish Jazz-Funk on Klaus Schulze's label? Yep and it just can't go wrong..... Some very sensual Jazz-Funk that is and there's 3 very persuasive tracks that may give you shivers. One of them was played at a cocktail party by the pool last year and I got quite some ID requests for that track... maybe that's why it's pretty tough to come by now?

Label: Not On Label

Year: 1999

Condition: M/M

Still sealed copy of Jiskefet's bonkers Maxi Single. "Amazing self-released 12" by the infamous Dutch comedian collective Jiskefet from the nineties. Two bizar eighties German crimi sounding tracks with equally bizar German text lines and composed with great electronic synths and musicality that would easily fit in any crazy Italo or Electro set. Well mastered and pressed on firm pink vinyl, highly recommended!" (stolen from a discogs review). Einen Tropical Drink, bitte!

This is one of my all time favourite records! Norbert Gottschalk's voice is the finest Germany has to offer. I even prefer him to Mark Murphy. Enough of the adulation and back to the facts. It's a private release so it's not available everywhere. And apart from being rare it's a wonderful album with 5 mindblowing tracks, 1 amazing track, 1 standard and a blues.....
